BBB for the week ending 2014-01-23, vs Glacier Peak and Stanwood

Last week was not a good one for Oak Harbor boys basketball.

Tuesday evening the guys took on the Glacier Peak Grizzlies and fell in all 3 games.

The freshman team sputtered on offense, scoring in double digits only in the 3rd quarter in their 56-25 loss.  Individually, Joshua Cote scored 8, Princeton Lollar 5, Kurtis Zylstra 4, Ty Baker 3,  Cody McKenna and Eli Loera 2 each and James Lage 1.

At the same time, the JV squad was in the main gym, and after leading 16-12 at the end of the first quarter, scored only 2 points in the 2nd quarter and trailed at halftime 24-18.  While the 3rd and 4th quarter were better, the Grizzlies prevailed 53-36. DiAngelo McKinney scored 10 for the JV 'Cats, Alex Waner and Savion Passmore scored 5 each, Sean Erskine 4, JJ Johnson and Paul Quinday 3 each, and Ben Fikse and Tanner Walker finished with 2 each.

In the varsity game, like the JV game, the first quarter was close, with the 'Cats trailing 14-12, and at halftime 30-23.  The 3rd quarter was the team's downfall, as GP went on a 14-5 run to take a commanding lead at the end of the 3rd.  Although OH outscored Glacier Peak 22-19 in the final quarter, the Wildcats fell 63-50.  Drew Washington scored 16 to pace the team, with Dyllan Harris also in double-digits with 10.  Zach Gibbs finished with 7 points, Zach Jones and Elijah Smith 6 each, Gabe Groening 3 and Shane Huttula 2.

Two days later it was league-leading and undefeated Stanwood in the OHHS gym.

The freshman team struggled early, but a brilliant 2nd quarter, led by 10 points from Joshua Cote made it a 5-point game at the half, with the Wildcats trailing 31-26.  While the OH defense held Stanwood to just 9 points in the 3rd quarter, the offense produced only 6 points, and Stanwood prevailed with a 50-37 win.  Cote again led the team, adding another 9 to his 10-point 2nd period outburst to finish with 19.  Lollar scored 5 and  Zylstra 3, with Adam Nelson, JJ Mitchell, Ellison and Loera ending with 2 points each.

Just as they did two days prior, the JV squad had an outstanding 1st quarter, scoring 17 points and trailing by only 5 at the first buzzer, but never got back on track and scored just 15 points for the remainder of the game, losing 78-32.  Scoring in this game was spread fairly evenly, with Preston Rankin leading the team in this game with 7 points.  Johnson scored 6, Fikse 5, McKinney 4, Passmore and Erskine 3, D'Andre Bellamy 2, and Quinday and Waner with 1 point each.

The varsity game was also close in the first quarter, with stellar Wildcat defense holding the visitors to just 10 points, but Stanwood adjusted well to the Wildcats and won 70-38.  Washington again was the scoring leader with 15.  Harris scored 9, Groening, Gibbs and Jones 4 each and freshman Jordan Davenport scoring 2 points.

Stanwood video highlights from all 3 games - Freshman, JV and Varsity - are posted HERE.
